Lakeside Hall Bar Related Questions: 

  • Can we have a cash bar?

We cannot do any type of cash bar due to our “private club” liquor license. When paying you’re reservation fee and signing your contract you become a member of the firefighter’s benevolent association allowing you to purchase the bar and serve your guests.

  • Can we bring in our own beer or alcohol?

No, you cannot bring in your own alcohol or beer. Our liability insurance covers you and your guests at the event. We must be sure that everyone leaves safely and that no one under age consumes alcohol on our premises.

  • If you do not carry a type of alcohol that we want will you special order it?

No we cannot order special requests to add to our bar for your event. Our affordable bar pricing is based on the cost of what we stock. Individual requests to give the bartender a bottle of your “favorite” liquor to serve to your guests will be on approval only through the hall manager.

  • Do I have to count children and non drinkers in my bar head count?

Children under the age of 10 years do not have to be included in your bar head count. Everyone else regardless of non-drinkers or teenagers under 21 must be counted. Our affordable pricing is also based on the fact that some will drink soda, some will drink beer and some will drink cocktails.

  • Do you include glassware with your bar?

Included with your bar are clear plastic 12oz cups for beer and soda, and clear plastic 9oz cups for mixed drinks.

  • If I have 4 hours of bar time can I “split it up” and close down for an hour?

Bar time cannot be split up due to the fact that the bartenders are paid for 4 hours and splitting up the time will extend the 4 hours.

  • Do you sell extra time for the bar?

Additional bar time beyond the 4 hours is available for $150 plus 10% of initial bar price per hour. Thatfee covers the alcohol, the bartender and the facility. Please note that additional time is at the bar managers discretion based on the safety of your guests.

  • How many bartenders will I need?

The bartender fee includes two bartenders for your event up to 225 guests.

  • Do you have champagne?

The champagne toast is $200.00 for up to 12 bottles of champagne.

  • If we have your bar can we bring our own champagne?

With hall manager’s approval a bottle or two of champagne may be given to the bartender to be served for the bridal party.
